Eldin gives Grianne a kiss and says, "I'll get better in the arena. I promise. I'll see you tomorrow." Eldin gets his things from the waterfall and heads back in to town.
Grianne bids Eldin goodnight and sleeps on her tree, alone with her thoughts. There is something she wants to talk about, but not with Eldin. Maybe one of the nice girls at the Glory. IT will have to wait till morning.

Ob sees several signs of passing game, a fresh trail of prints leading to the north, a trail of broken twigs a few days old leading west, and in the east you find an old pile of scat from something...big.
Ob starts to charge at his prey with greataxe in hand using his Tabaxi speed. Attempting to get the jump on the creature Ob will give in to the thrill of the hunt. He Rages and swings recklessly with his greataxe at it.
Attack: 20 Damage: 17
Ob, charges in and cleaves the pile of scat in two with his Greataxe.

Eldin gets back to the Glory and notices the new game table. "What is this thing?" He then notices the rules posted on the message board. "This looks interesting. Hey Marvarax, you want to play a round of this with me?"
"Marvarax got dragged out of here by that Tabaxi." Truth replies. "I'll play a round unless Zevryl wants a go?" She nods to the new employee polishing endlessly.
"We can" Truth answers, "of course a part of the game comes from weighing the choice of risking more to increase your chance of success. Is it worth doubling orvtripling your wager to increase your chance of victory? When the odds are in your favor your opponent may let you have your victory, but only with the smallest gain."
She rolls s die on the table. "We'll start with the mark." (Mark: 5)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Truth rolls the last die (Straight: 4+1)
"4 vs 2. That's pretty close. If you'd pulled I'd have been forced to use the accompice or be at a distinct risk of getting caught. Of course I'd still have had unfavorable odds"
Eldin gets up and orders his dinner. He eats absentmindedly. He is thinking about something. After he finishes eating. He wonders something. He says to Adair, "I'm turning in early tonight. I need to think."
When Eldin gets back, he takes a small piece of parchment and casts Thaumaturgy to cause a small flame to float in the air (Can I do that? If not then ignore that section). He gets out his notebook and makes some designs before going to bed.

(I think Zevryl is in the lounge.) "Sure why not. However, I want to play a game with no betting, just to see how it's played. Shall we begin?"
"We can" Truth answers, "of course a part of the game comes from weighing the choice of risking more to increase your chance of success. Is it worth doubling orvtripling your wager to increase your chance of victory? When the odds are in your favor your opponent may let you have your victory, but only with the smallest gain."

Eldin says, "I know. It's just that I don't gamble."
Eldin also rolls his Mark: 1
(You should choose to pull trip or stand with your mark, knowing my mark already.)
"The odds are in your favor if you play well. I'll trip."
She rolls another (trip: 3)

"Yeah. It was fun playing with you. Hopefully people who like to gamble will enjoy this game."
(I'm a bit confused. How did it end up with 4 vs 2 and who got what?)
(1 for your mark, -3 from the trip from Truth, and 4 from your straight roll is 2, 5 for her mark, -4 and 3 is 4)

(Ah okay. Thanks for clearing it up)
